Ps3deliddingservice Reviews 

Sensational service.
Perfect communication after I sent my PS3 in for repair following the Yellow Light of Death.
Quick replies, detailed description of the issues aswell as photographs of the work.
Can't recommend enough.

Matt is a one-of-a-kind legend for very good reason. My "frankenstein'd" PS3 is in absolutely immaculate condition. I didn't know a 20 year old console could look this amazing. It's clean as a whistle, cosmetically brilliant, and absolutely whisper quiet even when playing more demanding games. I am beyond impressed and grateful. It has been modified, cleaned, and reassembled with the utmost care and precision. Not even Sony did it better back in their heyday. He also sent the console super quickly and packaged it with great care.

I feel very lucky to have one of his systems in my home. He's the best of the best.

Would certainly recommend using Matt. He was polite and prompt with his replies and the turnaround was only a couple of days.

Would use again for any future console repairs.

I had my backwards compatible PS3 for almost 20 years. After it suffered multiple YLOD failures, I tried to get it fixed one more time so I could retro game PS2 and PS1 titles, along with some obsolete PS3 titles. I was informed by an engineer that my PS3 chip was severely damaged (GLOD) so it couldn’t be salvaged and said the only hope is a Frankenstein modification. So I quickly searched on google and found this PS3 delidding service.

The engineer, Matt, is truly a professional in every sense of the word. He reassured me through every process and answered every question I asked even when there were challenges regarding my old console. He took the utmost care of the console and packaged it securely with premium bubble wrap when he had it sent back.

My PS3 is now humming like brand new. Playing all my games without fuss and my family and I are having a blast playing retro games again. I will definitely be using his services for the foreseeable future in any event that involves my consoles. He just got a customer for life. Simply excellent customer service.

Amazing service. Cannot recommend enough! Friendly service and went above and beyond for me. Job done in quick time as well.

Professional and fast service. Very good and nice communication. Would highly recommend.

I have sent my 60GB console to Matt on several occasions; once for a Frankie mod, then a NEC Tokin replacement and finally a BD Drive replacement. On each occasion Matt has worked on my console with the utmost respect and with incredible professionalism. There is no one else that I would give my console to! The man is a magician! I cannot recommend Matt’s services enough

Needed help getting a Backward Comp PlayStation 3 repaired and I'm so glad I found this place. A very polite and helpful bloke called Matt talked me through everything, scanned and identified the fault very quickly, took pictures before and after the work, explained the Frankenstein procedure that needed doing and all for a very competitive price. PS3 is now back with me working perfectly again and couldn't be happier. If you need any PS3 work doing then this is the place.

Absolutely over the moon with the frankenstein mod done on my CECHA00, they were very fast with doing the work and also very polite and pleasant to talk to. Very good person, I highly recommend and trust them.

To everyone who is reading this and considering to restore/upgrade their beloved console. Matt is the ONLY trusted and reliable professional to take care of your console the way you expect it. Long story short, I bought the console from Japan and put the delivery address straight to Matt's shop. It was a risky move because the console was around 500 euros itself and I had no previous contact or experience with Matt but I talked with him before ordering and I felt comfortable. He did everything I asked and updated me on every single step, to be honest I had more expensive services in other categories previously but I never had such responsiveness from anyone, service was done professionally and it was packed/shipped the same day. Upon receiving the console unfortunately it got damaged by Customs(they decided to open and investigate and did not close the box properly and reseal it(it was perfectly packaged by Matt) and it came damaged. However I knew this was none of Matt's responsibilities since it was clear that the console was more secure packaged than it came from Japan. HOWEVER Matt out of kindness of his heart decided to replace the broken parts out of his OWN expense just for sake of me receiving the console in the state he shipped it and in the state I bought it. This review is not sponsored, not asked for, his shop is called RARETHINGZ, to be honest the name suits perfectly because Matt is one of a kind, RARE person.
Some sellers offer high quality work but poor customer assistance, this is best of both worlds.

The work that was done to my console was Frankenstein Mod 40NM RSX swap with Capacitors upgrade and everything else. Matt even sent me my old RSX and Hard drive(I've requested an upgrade).

Matt if you are reading this, thanks again.

Matt has been super infomative from the beginning, and kept me in the loop with every step. My console is now quiet and in perfect work condition

A reliable and professional repair service,

PS3 collected and returned within a week, Matt kept me up to date with everything explaining the work that needed doing and pictures of the work he had done.

Absolute quality service and just like many PS3 owners before me I am so very grateful.

Thanks Matt, your one of a kind,

Phil.

I reached out to Matt for a diagnostic on my PS3 to check the SYSCON as to why it had failed.

He provided me with photos of the process and highlighted the errors being flagged. Then promptly replaced a fried mosfet and the NEC tokens. The console sadly overheated but he did a Delid of the CPU and RSX and replaced the thermal paste.

Once he had tested that the console was running consistently without overheating he offered me to end the work or to do the frankenstein mod. I appreciate he let me choose what I wanted to do rather than sell a further expensive fix.

In the end I chose the 40nm RSX modification and Matt communicated that it would take time to order and replace the part. He promptly found one and replaced it in addition to doing further stress tests.

Overall, I would highly recommend Matt as he communicates throughout the process and does not force uneccessary work on your console.

I had the dreaded YLOD again instead of getting it reflowed again I decided to have it Frankensteined and nec tokins replaced, so glad I did Matt has done an excellent job in bringing the PS3 fat original launch console back to life also sent pictures off the work that was being done, it was fixed and sent back within a matter of a few days

Can't recommend Matt enough thank you.

Matt was fantastic, I purchased the service to get my Original launch UK PS3 the frankinstein mod, along with the capacitors, also get it cleaned up etc...

I did this on a Sunday and Matt still replied and got my PS3 picked up on the Monday! Incredibly quick service turnaround, kept me updated and even sent me pictures of the work being carried out.

The work done though... Incredible, console is now quiet for the first time in many years, the GPU is 15-20c cooler than it used to be, no overheating anymore, the whole console is just extremely clean and damn near perfect, super impressed, would absolutely recommend to anyone who wants work done on their PS3.

Truly excellent service. I was given a broken PS3 years ago (3 beep syndrome) and stored it away never thinking it might be able to be repaired.
I saw, and cautiously saved, the Ebay listing for the PS3deliddingservice Frankenstein mod. Then i visited their website and read the breakdown of the mod.
Wanting to bypass Ebay, and put more of the fee into the modder's pocket, i made my enquiry and booked the service/mod directly from the website.
The process was so easy and the service itself was first rate. I had constant communication, help with the postal service, photos of the machine during and after the mod, and the replacement of parts that had gone astray over the years. A faultless service from beginning to end (including the lid polishing).
Such a worthwhile mod, too. The PS3 is back in business and playing everything i can throw at it.
All thanks to everyone at PSdeliddingservice (Matt). A very trustworthy outfit. A huge thanks from me.

Matt is extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I sent my backwards compatible JAP ps3 and he completed the Frankenstein mod and replaced the capacitors. The console arrived beautifully packaged and it’s brilliant. Can’t recommend him enough, If you want your ps3 repaired this is your man.

Absolute legend 🙌, Repaired my backwards compatible model ps3 with Frankenstein mod that had been in attic for 8 years, that apparently was unfixable, honest and fast turnaround, top marks from me

I sent a PS3 controller to this company for repair. They informed me that the repair would take longer than anticipated. They gave me the option to wait a bit longer to get my original controller back, or to have a one that they had in stock sent to me. I went with the latter option, which was good because the controller I received was in better condition than the one I sent.
